I'm still a little bit in shock. My wedding is 7 months away (far enough away that I had to count on my fingers to be sure) and I have the dress, location, and invitations.
I guess that's not that much.
It feels like a lot, though. I'm relieved mostly because I don't have to worry about things because they're decided, but ....
But, I'm not sure.
that's it in a nutshell.
Not about the marriage, mind you, about the wedding. It feels like something happening to someone else.
Maybe I should have been dreaming about this since I was little. Maybe then I would feel prepared.
I need a perspective tune-up.

color tool
I was going through older posts at iDIYweddings (there's a link to the right) and found a color based flicker search that is awesome!
You can search by color for up to 10 colors at a time.
I think I have a new hobby.
wedding colors
When I started planning my wedding I was on the line about picking colors. I didn't want to be trapped into something that was obnoxiously color-coordinated on one hand, but I also felt that a coherent palate could really pull things together.
When we picked the venue, it made the decision even more difficult because I didn't want to clash with the majestic surroundings, especially at our ceremony site.
So when I took mountain boy to the paper store I figured we'd pick something in the white-cream-light brown range. Something neutral.
Instead I got the beautiful, rich color combo here:
Mountain boy wanted red-oranges that matched the red rocks in Moab. I wanted the rich chocolate that will match our cake. I had no idea that he was so into these little style elements.
It made me realize that I still don't know him completely. Even after four years he surprises me. I hope in 40 years he'll still surprise me.
I think I'll have a lot of flexibility with this palate.
I've already changed our wedding website to match the invites. Though I still have no idea what they're going to say.
